Central bank head sends Trump election warningTAIPEI--If Donald Trump wins the U.S. presidential election on Tuesday, U.S. trade protectionism will rise, which will drag down the U.S. economy and cause the country's finances to deteriorate, Taiwan's Central Bank Governor Perng Fai-nan said in a written report released Monday. Polls show a two-way race too close to call between Republican Party candidate Trump and his Democratic Party rival Hillary Clinton a day before Americans go to the polls to vote for their president. Perng revealed his views on the U.S. presidential election in the report set to be handed to the Legislature's Finance Committee Wednesday, in anticipation that he will be asked about the impact of the election's outcome.
